Album Notes This is an Enhanced audio CD which contains regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.Personnel: David Bowie, Tina Turner, Iggy Pop (vocals); Derek Bramble (guitar, synthesizer, bass); Carlos Alomar (guitar); Guy St. Onge (marimba); Arif Mardin (synthesizer); Carmine Rojas (bass); Omar Hakim (drums); Sammy Figueroa (percussion); Robin Clark, George Simms, Curtis King (background vocals).The Borneo Horns: Lenny Pickett (clarinet, tenor saxophone); Stanley Harrison (alto & tenor saxophones); Steve Elson (baritone saxophone).Producers: David Bowie, Derek Bramble, Hugh Padgham.Recorded at Le Studio, Morin Heights, Canada. Digitally remastered by Peter Mew and Nigel Reeve (1999, Abbey Road Studios, London, England).Following the enormous success of the vibrant and upbeat LET'S DANCE, David Bowie's follow-up TONIGHT was a slicker yet more enigmatic-sounding collection. Full of synthesizers and polite Arif Mardin arrangements, this record allowed Bowie to indulge himself, even if that meant not putting out LET'S DANCE II. Three songs were resurrected from the '70s Iggy Pop catalog and another newer one was co-written with Pop ("Dancing With The Big Boys.") A 1977 Pop song was used as the title track, on which Bowie duetted with Tina Turner (who was in the middle of a comeback herself) and turned it into a reggae-flavored love song. Elsewhere, the Thin White Duke paid tribute to the Beach Boys by covering "God Only Knows" and scored a hit with "Blue Jean," which was turned into a then-radical mini-film/music video. | |||||||||||
Reviews  Not tonight David! As a die-hard Bowie fan for over 30 years, I had come to expect something different & exciting from David on each of his album releases. Unfortunately NOT with this album. Anyone expecting another LET'S DANCE LP will be disappointed. Sorry Bowie fans but this sounds if it had been hurriedly written, recorded & produced with no thought on the final sound. So no matter how much remastering they do to this LP it is still sub-standard Bowie. I'm not saying the whole album is a disaster, there are a few surprises on the album. A great version of the Beach Boys 'God only knows' & an unusual REGGAE sounding duet with TINA TURNER on the title track. Best track on the album for me is 'Blue Jean' closely followed by 'Loving the alien'. It does take a few listens but the end result does slowly grow on you (took me about 5 years!).
